The Me Generation

Contributed by papajfat on Saturday, 24th August 2002 @ 05:08:12 PM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics

In my youth, I wished a thousand dreams,
to come true in the blink of an eye.
High hopes of limosines, too cool for high roller scenes.
To achieve the finer things in life.
But I grew up....

Now I'm arrogant, I'm lazy, and worst of all I'm dumb.
To hell with limosines, to get around I use my thumb.
Empty pockets and a nasty disposition,
I pretend to hear your words, but I don't listen.
Opportunities rise and squandered, to late to blame it all on dope.
There is no need for friends, I have T.V. to help me cope.
And it's a wonder that I'm even still alive,
Can't find a job, because I don't wake up till five.

And I know precisely what you think,
I'm on the brink, to be extinct, give up the drink or quickly sink.
But I don't care for herbal tea,
It's just not me to be so sweet.
I asked my shrink, he said I'm jinxed,
My future's bleak, and seems to reak.
And though I speak with tounge and cheek,
I know some week, I'll reach my peak.
And give a speech, that will not teach,
But be the breech, in global peace.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
